THE PITTWATER SIDE, WHERE THE WORKING DAY STARTS EARLY AND CALM

How a water-leg move runs

  • Truck to the wharf. The road leg is a normal move, timed to the water: everything wrapped for double handling before it leaves the house.
  • Across on the right hull. Furniture crosses on a suitable boat or barge arranged for the job, weather watched, tides respected. We coordinate that leg as part of the move rather than leaving it to you.
  • The far side is the real carry. Offshore blocks make Palm Beach driveways look tame: wheelbarrow paths, community wharves, bush stairs. It's planned like any grade 4 carry, just with sand in it.

Honest limits, stated up front

Water moves the plan around: a southerly or a big tide can shift the day, and pieces beyond a certain size and weight need the barge rather than the tinny run. We'll tell you which side of that line your furniture sits when we hear the list. What we won't do is promise a calendar the weather hasn't agreed to.

LOCAL FACT, FREE OF CHARGE

Ettalong is 9.3 kilometres across Broken Bay from here and nearly 97 by road, which is why everything and everyone sensible crosses by water. The same logic runs our offshore work: the water leg isn't the obstacle, it's the shortcut.

Part-loads and deliveries too

Most offshore work isn't a full house: it's the new fridge, the renovation's worth of flat-packs, the sofa that finally surrendered. We do single-piece and part-load runs to the offshore communities the same way, priced on the same hourly clock with the boat leg quoted plainly beside it.
